Sickness

Wow, have we had a lot of sickness in our house this winter. Last year my boys were not sick once, but this year is a different story. We have had the stomach flu, colds, random fevers and fifth disease. My oldest woke up at 4am burning up, he wasn't feeling well yesterday so I wasn't too surprised. I gave him medicine, a drink and I cuddled him back to sleep. I was praying for him as he fell back asleep and I realized one thing that I am not doing as well as I did last year... VITAMINS. Last year we were going through a lot with Josiah (a story for another time) he had a diet change and needed lots of vitamins. The boys would remind me to give them their vitamins each morning. They loved them. Then Josiah's Doctor wanted us to use a different kind and they are gross. Ever since then it has been a fight, so I guess they won, I hadn't really thought about it till now. Well the fight is not over, it is just going to a different level and that level is called Wild Oats. I am getting them vitamins that they will eat and some extra vitamin C! I know God gave me the wisdom while praying for my sick child. Thank you Lord!

Good to see you this morning:)

I hope your family recovers quickly- it's nasty stuff going around. Don't you love it when you start praying and God brings to mind what's been missing?
